HIGHTS is a nonprofit 501c3 organization that combats community deterioration and juvenile delinquency in Western North Carolina by serving youth, families, and organizations that serve youth. HIGHTS uses experiential activities, community service projects and goal driven exercises to help develop life skills and instill feelings of community belonging and purpose.
